Choose KUPONO

At Waipahu Intermediate, we encourage every person to Choose Kupono (righteousness).

We choose Kupono by demonstrating our 4 CORE Values - Respect, Responsibility, Honesty, and Caring.

Every quarter, each Advisory Teacher will choose one student as their Makana Aloha (Gift of Aloha). Each recipient will receive a customized certificate and Makana t-shirt that they can wear as a school uniform.

1st Quarter - Respect. 2nd Quarter - Responsibility 3rd Quarter - Honesty 4th Quarter - Caring
